ServiceNow has officially completed its acquisition of Armis, marking a significant step in expanding its AI-powered security platform. Through this move, ServiceNow strengthens its ability to deliver real-time visibility and protection across both digital and physical enterprise environments, enabling organizations to deploy agentic AI with greater trust and control.

Notably, this acquisition follows ServiceNow’s earlier purchase of Veza in March 2026. While Veza introduced AI-native identity intelligence into the platform, Armis now adds deep cyber asset intelligence. Together, these capabilities create a unified security framework that enhances both pre-breach and post-breach outcomes.

As cyber threats continue to evolve, organizations are increasingly struggling with fragmented security tools. Traditionally, systems that detect risks often lack the ability to act, while remediation tools operate without full visibility. Consequently, this gap between detection and response has widened, increasing enterprise risk especially in the era of agentic AI.

To address this challenge, ServiceNow integrates Armis’ real-time asset visibility with Veza’s identity intelligence. Armis continuously monitors billions of connected assets, including OT, IoT, medical devices, and cloud systems. At the same time, Veza maps access permissions across human users, machines, and AI agents. As a result, ServiceNow’s platform can now correlate assets, identities, and business context in a single environment.

Moreover, this combined intelligence feeds into ServiceNow’s Context Engine, enabling automated risk prioritization and remediation. Instead of simply generating alerts, the platform can now take action through automated workflows while maintaining governance and auditability. Therefore, organizations gain not only visibility but also the ability to respond in real time with precision.

“Most security platforms stop at the alert. ServiceNow closes the loop,” said Amit Zavery, president, chief operating officer, and chief product officer at ServiceNow. “Armis gives us real-time, contextual awareness into the cyber risk of every connected asset, including the devices and systems that conventional tools were never built to see. Combined with Veza’s identity intelligence, that signal flows into ServiceNow’s Context Engine and AI Control Tower, turning exposure into automated remediation with governance and a full audit trail built in at every step.”

In addition, Armis CEO Yevgeny Dibrov emphasized the broader impact of the integration. “We built Armis to solve the toughest cybersecurity challenges of organizations globally, protecting all their assets across IT, OT, IoT, medical devices, code, and cloud that are at the heart of manufacturing, healthcare, and critical infrastructure,” he said. “Joining ServiceNow, with Veza already on the platform, enables us to address this mission tenfold to keep the world’s largest and most complex enterprise environments safe and secure.”

From a customer perspective, the integration brings immediate and long-term benefits. Existing Armis users will continue to access Armis Centrix™ as a standalone solution, while also benefiting from deeper integration with the ServiceNow AI Platform over time. Meanwhile, joint customers can already leverage combined capabilities to enhance visibility, automate responses, and strengthen cyber resilience.

Furthermore, ServiceNow is taking a forward-looking approach by establishing an AI Center for Cyber Defense. This global hub will focus on advancing autonomous cybersecurity, bridging the gap between AI research and real-world security applications. It will also support organizations transitioning from traditional security models to AI-native defense strategies.

Industry partners have also recognized the strategic value of this move. Leaders from organizations like Accenture and Fortinet highlighted how the combined capabilities will enhance asset visibility, threat prioritization, and automated response at scale.

Ultimately, the acquisition significantly expands ServiceNow’s market opportunity in security and risk solutions. By integrating Armis and Veza into its platform, the company is positioning itself to deliver a new generation of autonomous, AI-driven cybersecurity one that not only detects threats but also acts on them in real time with full governance and control.
